test: cover AS TO method field annotations

 Both explicit forms must agree with the class field declaration.
 
+The `AS ... TO` spelling also works inside modern and compatibility object methods:
+
+```claro
+CLASS Player
+    HAS score NUMBER
+
+    TEACH set_score
+        SET score AS NUMBER TO 10
+    END
+END
+```
+
+The older `TAKES` / `LEARNED` method form accepts the same field annotation. Both forms are covered by focused typecheck validation, so method examples can use either the short annotation or the separated `AS ... TO` spelling.
+
 The explicit `TEXT` annotation must agree with the class field declaration. This
 keeps typed field examples consistent with typed variable assignments while
 still allowing the shorter `SET player.name "Ada"` form.

 - object creation now rejects repeated object names with a direct repair hint, so two `NEW Player player` statements cannot silently replace one another during type checking; when a script declares at least one class, a misspelled `NEW` class name gets a direct declaration hint without changing the older permissive no-class form; a missing class name or object name gets a direct example repair; extra words after the object name get a direct repair hint instead of being silently ignored
 - a narrow object-field assignment/check-type check for simple `NEW Class object` plus direct `SET object.field value` and `CHECK TYPE object.field IS TYPE` cases when the class declares `HAS field TYPE`; validation now covers correct NUMBER, TEXT, and YESNO direct assignments, dedicated positive and explicitly typed NUMBER/TEXT field assignments, explicitly typed method-body assignments to undeclared fields with a `HAS field TYPE` repair hint in modern and compatibility method syntax, dedicated positive NUMBER/TEXT/YESNO `CHECK TYPE` metadata fixtures, simple and chained object aliases for both field assignments and `CHECK TYPE` metadata (including a chained TEXT-field check), aliased object-method calls including chained aliases in modern `DO` and compatibility `CALL ... WITH` forms (with a dedicated positive modern `DO` chained-alias fixture), field-to-field, compound arithmetic field expressions, and arithmetic/text expression result types, negative NUMBER/TEXT/YESNO field `CHECK TYPE` metadata mismatches, NUMBER/TEXT/YESNO-expectation unknown-field `CHECK TYPE` diagnostics, missing-object field assignment and `CHECK TYPE` diagnostics, NUMBER/TEXT/YESNO wrong-type diagnostics, field collection when a `HAS` field appears after a simple method, NUMBER/TEXT/YESNO-valued unknown-field diagnostics for direct assignments to undeclared fields including explicitly typed assignments, numeric and text results from simple arithmetic/text expressions in object-field assignments, plus method-body field assignment and `CHECK TYPE` diagnostics for NUMBER, TEXT, and YESNO fields in modern and compatibility syntax, including compatibility YESNO `CHECK TYPE` metadata coverage, direct method assignments to undeclared fields now produce a beginner-facing missing-field diagnostic when the assigned expression has a known type, and a plain beginner-facing unknown-field diagnostic when the assigned expression is not inferable yet in both modern and compatibility method syntax; method-body `CHECK TYPE` now reports an unknown field with a repair hint in both method syntaxes, including compatibility `TAKES` / `LEARNED` methods; explicitly typed assignments to declared method fields now validate the class-declared field type instead of trusting only the inline type annotation, so a wrong value such as `SET score TEXT \"oops\"` reports the method and field in the diagnostic.
 - inline method-field annotations are checked against the class `HAS` declaration in modern and compatibility methods; conflicting known types and unknown annotation names produce field-specific repair guidance, with positive and negative focused fixtures for both syntaxes.
-- Direct object-field validation also has positive coverage for explicit `NUMBER`, `TEXT`, and `YESNO` annotations, such as `SET player.ready YESNO YES`, plus the compatibility-shaped `AS ... TO` form such as `SET player.score AS NUMBER TO 10`, while the shorter unannotated form remains supported; conflicting annotations such as `SET player.score TEXT "oops"` explain the class-declared type and how to repair it, and unknown annotations such as `SET player.score AS BANANA TO 10` or `SET player.score BANANA 10` identify the invalid type and suggest the declared field type.
+- Direct object-field validation also has positive coverage for explicit `NUMBER`, `TEXT`, and `YESNO` annotations, such as `SET player.ready YESNO YES`, plus the compatibility-shaped `AS ... TO` form such as `SET player.score AS NUMBER TO 10`, while the shorter unannotated form remains supported; method-body field assignments have matching positive coverage for both modern and compatibility `TEACH` forms using `SET score AS NUMBER TO 10`; conflicting annotations such as `SET player.score TEXT "oops"` explain the class-declared type and how to repair it, and unknown annotations such as `SET player.score AS BANANA TO 10` or `SET player.score BANANA 10` identify the invalid type and suggest the declared field type.
 
 Still needed:
 - Keep the focused typecheck validator's fixture list complete as new positive and negative examples are added. `claro validate` now executes the complete focused fixture matrix as well, so release validation cannot silently omit a listed typecheck example.
